It may not be that the rules are different, just some nuances of interpretation. Exactly when are they in position. It is a dynamic game and there vs. not there is never an exact science.

Well some agree with the charging call so they're agreeing with the FIBA interpretation...maybe they can explain it better.

I got a block. It looks like the player is coming forward when the passer/ball handler is airborne. And that is based on our interpretations here. I do not work FIBA so I do not have to worry about what they think right now.
